Book Reviews of The Dark Side: The Inside Story of How The War on Terror Turned into a War on American Ideals

Book Review: Devastating!
Summary: 5 Stars

The Bush-Cheney regime created a torture state worthy of the Nazi's right here in our midst. This book is a work of genius and should be read by anyone before they even think about going along with any torture program. Forget about waterboarding, many of these people were killed or simply disappeared. If the perpetrators of these horrors are not brought to justice, we in America have gone beyond all hope.
